Now for the floods!

So we have endured the constant flow of snow-related press releases and yes, we at CRN have even written a couple of stories about how the snow has affected the channel.

But now we need to be prepared for flooding caused by melting snow and burst pipes, and businesses must ensure they have a proper backup and recovery system in place, otherwise they risk losing vital business critical data - etc etc.

Something tells me that the majority of news releases about the having the right system in place will come from disaster recovery specialists who just happen to have the right solution to cure all worries. Amazing!

I personally am building an Arc in my back garden and carefully gathering local Leicestershire animals together in pairs in preparation for this epic flooding we are going to get.

On a serious note though - there is an awful lot of frozen water out there so I suppose it doesn't hurt to be prepared for the worst.
